This folder contains replication materials to produce all the tables and figures in 'Cause of Effect? Turnout in Hispanic Majority-Minority  Districts'. 

Prior to running any .R file, the local folder location must be specified. This may be done manually in each .R file, or can be done in batch using the script in runs.sh. (Note, this has only been compiled and tested on Mac 10.7.5, and so may fail on other implementations or architectures.) The local path is the parent directory containing the replication folder /replicationPA/. 

The file runs.sh will also produce all tables and results, after updating the local directory in the files.

A data codebook is found in ~/replicationPA/data/codebook.xls. The codebook contains descriptions of all variables used in the main and replication analyses.

Please report any bugs or errors to john.henderson@yale.edu, sekhon@berkeley.edu or titiunik@umich.edu.
